  • Abstract
    VLSI, MCM and WSI technologies are compared on the basis of silicon area, substrate size and power consumption. Theoretical estimates for these parameters are developed and then illustrated by examining the design of a radix-4 FFT butterfly processing element. The MCM implementation should cost the least in production, but it is the largest and consumes the most power
